A Cattery Of Traditional Ragdolls
Welcome to Three Wishes, where stunningly beautiful, delightfully charismatic kittens are born and raised. Our kittens are family raised, in our small in home cattery. We currently offer traditional TICA Ragdoll kittens. We are located in beautiful southern Alabama. These are the living teddy bears of cats. Besides their regal elegance and unsurpassed beauty, their sweet dispositions are unlike any other!
About the breed
If you dream of having a beautiful, pedigreed cat, but the high maintenance of some breeds is too much for your family, the Ragdoll is the breed for you! Ragdolls are lower maintenance than many other other pedigreed breeds. Because Ragdolls have a single layer of medium length silky fur, they are relatively easy to groom. Their luxurious soft fur requires minimal grooming to keep it looking its best! Because there is no thick undercoat, Ragdolls usually have reduced shedding and matting when compared to other double coated breeds. This means that, while Ragdolls do still shed and can develop tangles, it will be much less that of other higher maintenance breeds. With weekly or bi-weekly grooming, tangles rarely occur. Their wonderfully shaped faces also mean little to no tearing and tear stains, easy breathing, and less colds.
BIG AND BEAUTIFUL
Ragdolls are one of the largest cat breeds, with females weighing from 8 to 15 pounds and males being even larger at 12 to 20 pounds, (unaltered cats will weigh less than altered cats). Because Ragdolls are color point cats, they also have captivating, large oval shaped, vivid blue eyes. Their coat comes in many colors and patterns and it's exciting to watch their color darken as they grow.
PERSONALITY
Although every cat has it's own individual personality, Ragdolls are often called lap cats, or dog-like. Most of them love human companionship and love to play. Some people have even been able to teach their cat tricks. Mild-mannered and friendly, they usually get along well with children and other pets.

Our main Priorities are healthy cats, and happy customers.
Our Ragdolls are registered with TICA, The International Cat association! TICA is a large, worldwide registry, and is the most progressive registry in the world. TICA recognizes more new breeds and colors than other cat fancy organization.
Although at this time our kittens are TICA registered, we also maintain a CFA registration.
Although at this time our kittens are TICA registered, Three Wishes is now also a registered cattery with the new and exciting LCWW registry.
Three Wishes is now an Early Spay and Neuter Cattery! Each kitten will be altered at around 14 weeks old, before leaving our cattery.
Our kittens go to their new homes between 15 and 17 weeks old, no exceptions. We vaccinate the kittens ourselves at least twice before they leave. Our kittens are examined by a veterinarian shortly before going to new homes.
Our program is very health conscious. Parent cats are disease tested and they are routinely treated for parasite prevention. All of our adults are tested for PKD, HCM, and Retinal Atrophy. DNA testing tests for the most common types of genetic illnesses.
